This is absolutely stunning! That strap is icing on the blue cake.

I'd buy this off you if you ever decide to sell it

Late to the party but I saw this Orient Star recently and liked it. Not real expensive and has an Aqua Terra vibe to it.

There aren't many of those floating around. I've seen one for sale in the last couple months, and missed out on getting it by a couple of hours. :banghead:

I like that one. I've looked at it a few times but never pulled the trigger.

Bit of an impulse decision, but I jumped on to the Doxa 1200T Caribbean (managed to get the preorder pricing).
I am told it just arrived at home (stuck at work now :banghead: )

Agreed. I had the PVD one (the last piece from Watchmann) and (foolishly) sold it.

Yes, white painted markers that glow light blue when the lume is activated (** Edit: light blue unless you hit it with a torch to get a full lume charge, then it appears a bit more green when fully blazing)
I will take a few more pics and put up a new thread in a few days maybe, so I am not jacking this thread :shifty:

Next to the 114060

Just picked up a pre-owned Squale Master in blue from ebay. Hopefully will have some of my own pictures by next week. Here's one from the web

Very nice!

Reminds me of the one Sanao had for sale a while back.
